| dc.description.abstract | The rapid expansion of aquaculture the last decades has resulted in a higher use of
antimicrobials(AM) in the industry. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is not a new phenomenon,
however, the increasing rate in which new antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) are emerging
is of concern. In this study, freely available Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) next generation
sequenced samples obtained from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)
Sequence Read Archive (SRA) were found. These samples were analysed by a unified
metagenomic pipeline to study the ARG contents. A collection of samples was found from
North America, Chile, Norway and Scotland. | en_US |
